How to Mount a Soundbar to a TV Stand

A soundbar provides a set of speakers in a horizontal enclosure with greater amplification than those built into a flat-panel TV. You can attach the sound bar to the TV stand at the base of the TV so that dialogue projects naturally to the viewer. Tools that most homes have on hand will be needed, as will supplies from a hardware store.

Instructions

1

Cover the surface of a table with bath towels. Place the soundbar face down on the towels so that the text on the back is facing up.

2

Hold one of the two brackets so that the curved end is upright and facing right. Place the slot on the curved end over one of the mounting holes on the left side of the soundbar. Place a metal washer over a metal screw. Insert the screw into the slot. Screw the metal screw into the mounting hole with a Phillips screwdriver.

3

Hold the other bracket so that the curved end is upright and facing left. Place the slot on the curved end over one of the mounting holes on the right side of the soundbar. Place a metal washer over a metal screw. Insert the screw into the slot. Screw the metal screw through into the mounting hole with the screwdriver.

4

Place a C-clamp on the table with the protruding tab facing up. Line up the hole in the tab with a hole on the bottom of the bracket to your left. Place a metal washer over a metal screw. Insert the screw through the holes in the clamp and bracket. Twist a nut over the screw on the other side of the bracket. Tighten the nut with pliers. Repeat this procedure with the other C-clamp and the bracket to your right.

5

Hold the soundbar horizontally so that the two C-clamps are facing facing up.

6

Squeeze the handle of the C-clamp to your left so that the jaws open. Place the jaws around the front left edge of the TV stand. Repeat this procedure with the other C-clamp and the front right edge the TV stand.
